Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: Teddy bear

Today is my oldest daughter's birthday, so Happy Birthday, Fiona! Couldn't resist quickly snapping these sentimental toys for her. They belonged to my brother in England, who died last Christmas, and they arrived by sea just a few weeks ago. Poor Toffee does look really, really worn, and I know he was a much-loved teddy bear. My mother made the little pink velvet piglet and the knitted piglet a fair number of decades ago : ) Anyone else finding it difficult to do anything on Flickr this evening? When I click on an image or something else, it takes forever to open or work.

No eyes, hardly any fur, and a "squeaker" that no longer growls .... that's my dear old Teddy bear from when I was a little girl (a few decades ago, LOL). A few months ago, a family member was on a short trip to England and was given this bear by my brother, to bring over to Canada for me! Just after Christmas, I was able to collect him from my son's. Can't remember what the bright red bow was from, but it was still lying on my two-seater since Christmas. I gave it to my Teddy to brighten up the photo : ) It feels so weird to see and feel this old, beloved toy again. Just wish he could "see" me : (.
